Laura's Sketch 20




My card made with clear acetate card

Yes, Spring is definitely in the air! I am so excited for green grass, brightly colored tulips, soft fuzzy bunnies, warmer weather, Spring cleaning, well maybe I am not too excited to clean but boy does it feel great when it's all done! A time to purge and de clutter and to organize all of our scrapbooking/crafting supplies! Something I desperately need to do.

This week our very talented design team went up and above their creativeness and made some really beautiful creations, They all were given really cool supplies from our wonderful sponsor this week Creative Cuts and More!

"What Caught our Eye this Week....."

Kimmie, from Crafting for Sanity, introduced us to the gorgeous Washi Paper. Her card that she created with it is really beautiful. I hope the paper will be available in a craft store near me pretty soon because I would love to try some on a card or two.

I hope your Sunday is both peaceful and filled with tons of creativity. Tomorrow Laura returns with a great sketch and of course the Design Teams interpretation of it. We also have a fab new sponsor for you to meet.

Hugs

Kazan's Sketch 20




I had so much fun seeing all your beautiful love cards last week and thank you all for being such good sports and showing us the Eye Candy in your life. Having a bit of fun and laughter is so much part of what we do. Enjoying being creative and spending time with good company is always enjoyable on any given day. As we bid farewell to Valentines Day for another year and slowly welcome in Easter celebrations and Spring I can feel my mood change towards lighter & softer colors. All my cards seem to have the same soft hues and I think it is totally seasonal ;) and our fantastic Spring Design Team have given us more uber inspiration from their interpretations of this weeks sketch:

Sakura of America

Of all the products that Sakura of America has to offer I am a personal fan of their Gelly Roll Pens. They do write ulta "ice cream smooth" and the creamy ink and incredible array of colors provide plenty of favorite "flavors" for letting your creativity flow onto paper. For mega inspiration from fantastic artists visit the Artist Showcase on the Sakura of America website:
